Default Are Lifestyle Visits on HOLD now?

Wife and I are nearing our one year anniversary as Villagers. Trying to help out friends of ours who want to come to TV for a LSV but are getting the run-a-round. Has anyone heard of problems trying to book a visit to TV?

I have a lifestyle visit coming up in a couple of weeks. I made the reservation about a month ago. At that time, they said they were booked up all summer, but they were able to find me a date that had had a cancellation.

Nope....have friends that just left to go home and get that one sold. Have your friends call directly to book, because they want payment for the stay when they book it.

We will be in down renting month of August and looking at homes. Seems like the Villages is short on inventory both new and preowned. What is your take on the inventory?

I watch the listings and they are selling fast. One came up for sale in our neighborhood and it was pending the first day. They have no problems selling homes here.

It is a wonderful place to live. I was so skeptical when we first came. I thought it way too good not to have a hitch somewhere. It truly is just wonderful to live here. And now we have gotten very old here and we still love it.

Maybe the run around is dates are not available that your friends want. May need to be more flexible. Our friends booked in March for July, they wanted to add days on, but there was nothing available

If it is hard to get a place on the Lifestyle Visits, why not rent a home style they fancy for a week.
Cheap in TV in the hot season.
Form your own opinion, and ask questions of the locals who already live here.

This site might help VH4R Home Rentals in The Villages Florida The Villages Rentals for short term rentals. I would try and get one including a golf cart.

I counted 96 homes on the Villages Homefinder (the official Villages sales website) that were either already built brand new and never lived in, or pre-owned. I filtered out homesite that hadn't been built yet, and anything that was pending. If you include pending there are over 200, I had to stop counting to get dinner.

There are hundreds on zillow.
